So this is the second time this has happened. I posted about the first time about 3 months ago, it hasn't happened again until today. Same scenario; speed sign recognition off, local road without any speed changes which I drive it at least twice a day, sometimes more without issue. Today I was...

So this has happened 3 times in the last week. I never noticed it before so not sure if it came with an update. When parked where there is an obstacle in front of me (i.e. wall, another vehicle, etc.) when I put my foot on the brake, it automatically switched to reverse. Anyone else see this...

No, I didn't get an update, I bought a new vehicle (well second vehicle). I bought a Lincoln Corsair to use on road trips as I just don't have time to add charging time to my long trips and wanted an ICE backup, neither here nor there, my reasons are my reasons. In any case, being a Ford...

So this has never happened before. Driving on a side street today, cruise control set to 32, no people or vehicles around, then suddenly it just brakes and comes to a crawl as though there was a stopped vehicle in front of me, then gets back up to speed and goes merrily on the way as though...

Decided to take advantage of the great weather and took a drive from Seattle to Ocean Shores. It was a great trip and got 3.3 mi/kWh, which is amazing, as I usually get 2.5 or maybe 2.7 on my GTPE. I did use Whisper rather than Unbridled, only because I wanted a smoother ride, not sure if it...

So this morning I got the notification powerup 6.3.0 was installed (I think it started a couple days ago but said incomplete, it completed this morning). Then while at lunch I got a notification 24-PU0119-DC-CHG4 was ready to install, so I did it while at lunch. Then on the way home from lunch...

Just happened to look down 🤣

This hasn't happened to me before. Normally I will get a "ready to install" message when I turn the vehicle off after driving, or turn it on after being parked, but today I drove somewhere 15 minutes from the house and while I was driving I got an "Update Successfully Installed" message. In any...

This is not another "OMG my value has dropped so much!" thread. Instead, I was pondering what will happen to the value of our current vehicles once the new NACS vehicles come out next year. Will anyone want to buy a used CCS vehicle knowing they will need to use an adapter everywhere? I've heard...

In October I posted about the big rock that put the large chip in my windshield. Prior to that I would get hit at least once a week and just get nicks. Two weeks ago I got the windshield replaced. Today the new windshield got it's third nick in two weeks. Is this a design thing or am I just...

Was watching a few MME videos this morning and I find every time I watch an MME video, whether good or bad, I immediately have the urge to go out and drive. I find myself having that reaction even when I talk about it 🤣 I've had a Mach-e since March (first a '21 GT now a '22 GTPE) and have put...

Edmunds new list of Best AWD Electric Vehicles of 2023 and 2024 The MME made two lists: Best All-Wheel-Drive Electric SUVs, #2, just slightly below the Hyundai Ioniq 5 AWD and above the KIA EV6 GT line. Best Performance Electric SUVs, #4, just slightly below the KIA EV6 GT and above the Tesla...

So after much watching reviews and going back and forth between the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus, the MICHELIN PILOT SPORT A/S 4, or the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus Elect, I finally decided to go with the Pirelli. I'm really not going to be driving on snow, it will mostly be wet and...

From 3.5.3 to 3.5.3.3, but it's exciting, as it means it's not (or no longer) stuck! Maybe I will get more of them now.

So last weekend while on my weekly mini-road trip, I stopped in an out of the way rest area. There was a Jeep jacked up missing a wheel and only one other person, an old man, probably in his late 80s, looked like an old prospector, with a 2005 red Mustang GT. I pulled in a couple spots away...

So I just thought this was interesting and decided to post it. Back when I had my previous GT, before upgrading to my GTPE, I had checked with Carvana for a value, which was WAY low (this was in June). But I just got an email from them saying the value went up. Their original quote to me was...

So over the weekend I had some friends come into town. They rented an AirBNB. There was only 1 lane on the street it was on and a dead end, which required turning around. All the driveways had "No Turning Around" signs. There was one steep driveway next to the house that wasn't used (blocked by...

Not even three months old and already damaged. I have gotten so many rock chips on I5 north of Seattle, so irritating. Made an appointment with Safelite tomorrow for a repair. It's just left of center so not directly in line of site, should be fine.

So I took a drive from Lynnwood to Vancouver, WA today to visit friends and show off my MME. Both he and his wife fell in love with it and both loved the color, and by the time I left the wife said "I think we might be getting one!" to which the husband said "I want one too!" 🤣 Going down I...

Took a drive up north, decided to go the back route, such a great drive. I stopped in a small town for lunch. When I came out there was an old woman standing between my vehicle and the one next to me talking to the driver of the other vehicle. I started up and started pulling out, she nearly...
